Jay, You're triggering some serious PTSD with this question. When 2017 NEC came out Mass was the first state to adopt it and the inspectors started requiring arc fault breakers on the micro inverter branch circuits, we were using Enphase. At the time they didn't work, weren't really listed for backfeed, and caused all kinds of problems. We ended up appealing to the state board and lost only for the state board to turn around a few months later and repeal that requirement. We ended up with thousands of dollars in arc fault breakers sitting in boxes in the shop.
I'm not sure if they've worked out the technical issues but if it's anything like it was in the past it's going to be a nightmare of false arc faults.
